GuardianshipsA formal court proceeding is required in Illinois in order for a guardianship to occur. A person is appointed to be the guardian over another person because the Court has determined that person can no longer care for his/her self or manage his/her affairs.

Guardianships are granted over minors, disabled persons and the elderly who can no longer care for themselves. Guardianships can be either over the person or property or both and can be limited in duration or permanent. It is important that the Guardian be trustworthy and willing to act in the best interest of the person who can not protect him/her self.
